I completely agree with your comment and would also note that the median age in Gaza is roughly 18 which is coincidentally also roughly the last time they had an election, which means most Palestinians have had no influence on their government.

This feels a lot like the American reaction after 9/11 where a great crime was committed but less violent options were rejected by hardliners who wanted to overcompensate for having missed the threat after having made “we will protect you” a major campaign point, and likely also seeing an opportunity for something they could not do following the normal political process. In this case it seems all the more tragic because there’s no natural separation due to distance, and it’s hard to see this not resulting in more tragedies for decades with so much fresh blood to avenge.

What schools have impressed you?
I have a teen son thinking about college soon. I've been around alot of smart people, great developers, terrible developers. What school (proxied via people who you worked with) has impressed you the most?

for me, it seems MIT has the most competent engineers. Harvard/yale talks more than works. Haven't really seen many from Princeton out in the world. Stanford doesn't last, always leaving to go do something else.

no stories. just names. also if your going to complain about a simple answer, go do it in the bathroom looking at the mirror.

Or.. it's industry standard duplicity.

This isn't specifically an issue with this service alone (I like it), but the approach to UGC (user generated content) in general.

What's unclear is what rights or license remain if someone deletes their account and content. It's trivial to clarify, making omission is a decision.

Use of the word "improving" is pretty general and broad, and can be about the priorities of the vendor over the customer.

What's missing is the clause that closes the loop and doesn't give them a lifetime license.

"you grant Supertone a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, adapt, and display content solely for the purpose of operating and improving Supertone Shift."

This is from a million years ago, so is technically a 'letter distributed via usenet', not a blog post. I would be impressed if somebody is able to find a copy of it again.

Like many young developers, I once aspired to be a game developer. But then I read a public letter by somebody at Origin Systems (possibly named Bill Armintrout?) who explained what a grind it is to work in the game industry and how [humorously] maybe he should just get a job working on boring business software instead.

I might have the details wrong; this was probably 30+ years ago! But it did make me aware that doing the thing you love for a day job can kill your love for that thing, which I have also seen happen to other people. So I focused my career on intellectually fulfilling work in a different industry, leaving me free to happily tinker with game development as a hobby in my spare time.
Yes, I have written extensions or simple functions for emacs.

My latest one is a minor mode called markdown-notebook [1]. It lets you add and execute python codeblocks into markdown files. The results of the codeblock are inserted just below the codeblock. It's a reasonable way to add code examples to your readme or github wiki without having to copy and paste things from the terminal.

Still need to do some work to get it to paste images (say from matplotlib) into the markdown document.

It's really funny. They took a system that was essentially free to them (player run servers and moderation) and replaced them with expensive, in house run servers, such that if your game is more popular than you expected, everyone has a miserable time because your infra dies.

But they """had""" to, because they want to sell cosmetics and "microtransactions", nevermind that a digital costume that costs as much as a candybar or soda shouldn't be called a "micro" transaction.

You can't sell anything if you give away the authoritative server software. Valve tried to get around this by having third party servers contact an official server with a "who actually owns what" style api but nobody gives a fuck.

Ah man, it's almost like a costume that took your character artist a week to put together when they would have otherwise been sitting on their hands shouldn't cost $5

That was exactly my point...a million dollars of debt is astronomical for the majority of people, but adding another data point such as DTA or DTI would make for a clearer picture of what the debt load actually is. Its like putting down a 100kg kettle bell and asking a group of people "is it hard to lift"? For the average person sure...but you're going to get a variety of answers if you put that kettle bell in front of kids vs a group of gym rats.

Edit: I guess a smaller amount like 10k USD might be better to illustrate the point.
I run a server on a Raspberry Pi at home, but since I have an iPhone 12 with a lot better specs than the Pi I wondered why not just run it on that (with Ubuntu ofc not iOS).

All possible explanations for existence have a 'well okay, but what created that' issue. Whether you start with a God, or with a quantum fluctuation, one is left asking - okay well what created the God, or what created the void in which quantum mechanics (and who created such a system to begin with) burst forth. There is no answer to these questions, because regardless of the story - it always ends (or in this case, begins) in the same very uncompelling way - 'Well it just always was.'

In any case, the mystical and physical are not fixed. Imagine explaining the consequences of relativity to a skeptical individual of times past. Think of his response to the notion that time itself is a variable and can move at different rates for different people in different circumstances. It sounds like absurd mystical sci-FI nonsense. Except it's real, so now has been promoted from the mystical to the physical.

So what a skeptic of today would label "mystical" will almost certainly change over the centuries and millennia yet to come. Scarcely more than a century ago, state of the art transport was a horse, computers did not exist, quantum physics did not exist, relativity did not exist, human flight was widely believed to be impossible, and so on endlessly. It seems unlikely in just a century that we've even scratched the surface of knowledge yet to come, let alone meaningfully penetrated into it.

My comment was in relation to the philosophy page of your framework. I thought I had included it.

https://docs.cheatcode.co/joystick/philosophy

I hope you do, I'm sure there would be at least an audience of 1000 true fans for this.

Its one of the only javascript frameworks that stood out to me because of that page having a real enough human story.

Feels similar to the individual developer starting a project wondering if any framework is looking out for them to stay productive :)

I generally avoid the javascript brittle maintenance time-sinks but using it is a reality and knowing that there's simple frameworks that can absorb and handle complexity are valid.
Show HN: I made a NextJS kit to stop wasting product ideas
Hey HN,

I've been working on a Next.js kit because I often waste good product ideas by never finishing them. I'm aware we shouldn't rely solely on motivation, but the motivation I have during the first week is incredible and makes me very productive. However, I usually spend that first week setting up authentication, Stripe subscriptions, emails, SEO, etc. So, I created a kit that includes all these elements so you can focus on your product from day one.

You might be thinking, 'Another Next.js kit?' Yes, there are many alternatives, but I built this one for myself using the technologies I prefer. If others find it useful, that's great for both of us.

Here are a few things I consider great about my kit:

1. Comprehensive documentation at https://docs.shipit.so
2. Highly customizable yet offers excellent default settings for speed
3. Uses SQLite by default but can easily integrate MySQL or other databases
4. Combines great technologies such as Next.js, TypeScript, Prisma, Tailwind, Stripe, Shadcn, and Resend
5. I will keep it frequently updated

Like with clothing, there are many options, but we choose what suits us best. If this kit suits your needs, I'm happy to assist you.

You can find the product at https://shipit.so

Thank you for your time.
If I may simplify what you're saying to what seems to be the gist:

[The criticism] focuses on Israel as a uniquely colonizing entity

In essence the criticism seems to boil down to this:

Israel indisputably maintains the longest-running military occupation in the world, at present. Which it is aggressively expanding in both the West Bank and Gaza, as we speak.

Its attitude towards the Arab population has been ineluctably colonial from the very start of the movement. As expressed in most every piece of Zionist writing you will find, and the recorded statements from basically everyone involved. And then the large-scale massacres and violent displacements starting in 1947.

In a supposedly post-colonial world, there are very few countries with an analogous situation or history.

Is this the criticism you're referring to?

I've been using UptimeRobot since 2019 for FastComments, relatively happy. They have a PagerDuty integration, although I just use the built in text/email alerts ATM.
Back when I was using HA, Core and Container did not exist (at least as first-class recommendations), so I'll admit not having been really aware of what they were. Core would have meet my deployment policies at the time, and if it had existed I would have gone that route instead of Supervised and been much happier. So I will give credit there for HA getting better distribution options since my poor experience.

> There's just no way something like HA can be both useful for most people, and be released according to the Debian Stable calendar

People running Debian Stable expect and want slower updates. It's a feature, because things don't change out from under you. It means perhaps not being able to use some new device, but it also means that your current setup just doesn't break/change out of the blue to accommodate some new feature. Essentially the reasons you've said are already being taken into account by people running stable - like yes, running a HA moderated by Debian Stable while trying to use fleeting online APIs is going to be a bad time. Just like trying to use yt-dlp out of the Debian repo is.

> NixOS is not that much different from the HA approach

Sure, but the difference is that I opted into using NixOS as my OS distribution to meet my needs for my entire environment. Whereas HA pushes using their HASS [0] mini distribution as part of using HA. We've discussed the necessary reasons for that, and I agree that the all-encompassing solution makes sense for many people. But the fact remains that is essentially managing a new instance of a bespoke distribution. And that's what really made for my negative experience.

With the advent of Core, it does seem like my previous specific situation has been addressed. But the memory of my experience remains, and then I see things like https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/126326 which make it look like that same rejection of the larger ecosystem dynamic is still alive and well. It just gives me pause, regardless of the continued existence of HA-on-NixOS.

As I said, I'm certainly not against Home Assistant. I'll eventually try using it again when I want some kind of easy UIs for my automation setup. The problems I'm currently solving really just require logging, graphs, and automation rules. And so I've just decided to focus on MQTT-first as the nucleation point, rather than putting all my eggs in the Home Assistant basket again.

[0] Whatever the mini Linux distribution that runs inside the Docker container is called. When writing the previous comment I had thought that was HAOS but now I'm seeing that HAOS isn't included in Supervised or Container. I believe it was called HASS back then, so maybe it's still HASS?
It is a terrible anti-pattern.

It doesn't even tell you enough to know which device it is talking about. Much less first class context information, like the fact that it is just an access renewal.

It doesn't let you review the information and disable the access if somehow it was a security problem.

Virtually useless, misleading, and unnecessarily alarming, as you say.
That's not intuitive to me, but I recognize that the problem is on my end. Thanks for explaining!

A bit old but, https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/mediacenter/android-more-in...

One might argue that Android is targeted more than iPhone because of its larger userbase which certainly may contribute to it, but then MacOS which has a fraction of the userbase is more targeted than iOS - that makes the case that sideloading or lax app store reviews really are at least partly to blame.

Given much of the malware seems to be apps that trick users into granting permissions by masquerading as a legitimate app or pirated software, it's not really too hard to believe that Apple's app store with their draconian review process and no sideloading might be a more difficult target.
Ah, ok. I’m way out of date!
Not super fancy & most people have moved on from Bash to ZSH these days (or at least feels that way), but [1] is mine for managing bash. The big features are breaking down a big giant mess of bashrc into reusable modules that you can take from company to company and between OSes. Better PATH management out of the box too. You just append a set of paths to add and if you reload the path module it'll compute and apply a delta instead of just blindly appending (it'll also remove paths no longer listed). You can also indicate which paths should be prepended instead of appended. There's also out of the box features like git/hg support for inserting the branch/feature name, colorizing PS1, injecting the status code of the last run command, etc.

Derivatives are governed by the CFTC not the SEC.

It does matter, because they aren't doing anything wrong if these crypto assets are considered commodities and not securities.

Also, just because a government agency is suing you, that doesn't mean it has any legal or moral imperative. I don't see your point.
From the CFTC:

> Bitcoin is considered a commodity and is the underlying asset in bitcoin futures contracts… Bitcoin futures contracts — like other commodity futures contracts such as corn futures, market index futures, or gold futures — are regulated by the CFTC and must trade on CFTC-regulated exchanges.

Last few weekends I worked on a FPGA based Linux VT subset compatible tty display implementation for my HW projects.

Something that can be used to present some simple TUI on a largish LCD based on a simple 1-wire UART interface in a semi-standardized, performant and cheap way (good quality IPS displays are ~ 6-10 EUR, and tang nano is 10-20 EUR, depending on model).

https://megous.com/dl/tmp/tty-fpga.mp4

It also implements an efficient "scrolling" output mode, so it can simply be connected to anything that produces debug output on UART, too. Use cases are pretty flexible. Smallest Microchip PIC MCU can easily present a reasonably nice UI. :)

It can also accept input over the Tang Nano's USB UART directly from the connected PC (which is what's on the video).

At 3 Mbaud, it's possible to keep updating the content of whole screen at 50 FPS from a simple MCU, over a single wire at easily manageable interface frequencies. Anyhting less, like incremental changes to subset of screen content via ANSI escape sequences pretty much runs at 60FPS/display's refresh rate.

It's based on Tang Nano 9k currently, but it should fit even Tang Nano 1k, which is a bit cheaper.

I'm sorry, but people with little or no technical background have no idea what's an "object" in the context of computing. Non-starter unless you have eager students and/or you're a phenomenal instructor (which you might just be if your students come away with an idea of "objects" that are not chairs and tables and things).

Except it doesn't. Factory building isn't the only metric for progress of reshoring manufacturing and graphs do not interpret themselves. In that chart the overall trend of factory building investment remains elevated through the Trump administration over the previous administration even though the fervor of the shale revolution and the subsequent reshoring was cooling off. Why? The factors that I previously mentioned.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nix_(package_manager) says

> Initial release June 15, 2003; 20 years ago

So... just by calendar time, no, nix probably isn't "modern". Though I do agree that calling a new thing modern isn't the most useful description; much better to say how it's better than the thing that came before it. The steel man is probably that "modern" is shorthand for "the underlying ecosystem/tools have shifted and the old thing suffers for not being able to adopt better ways of doing things, and this new thing will therefore be easier to work on / more robust / more feature-rich / less buggy / etc.", but I'd rather have that be articulated explicitly.
